The MacBook Air is Apple’s thinnest and lightest laptop, which is why it is such a popular pick with students and anyone working on the move. A refurbished one is a smart way to get that portability for a good bit less than new, and every Air on this page has been tested and graded by our team before it goes on sale. You can choose from A+ Pristine, A Excellent, B Good or C Average, and all of them come with a 12-month warranty.
This page covers the full range across every generation. If you already know you want Apple silicon, jump to the refurbished MacBook Air M1 or the newer refurbished MacBook Air M2 range.

Nothing leaves us until it has been through the workshop. Each MacBook Air is checked over by hand, cleaned, tested and graded, so the grade you pick changes how it looks rather than how it runs. We also make sure every machine is clear to sell and not locked to a previous owner, so it is ready to set up as your own from the start. Buying refurbished keeps a working laptop in use for longer too, which cuts down on waste.
The Air is the lighter one to carry and suits everyday work, browsing and study for less. If you lean on your laptop for heavier jobs such as editing or running a lot at once, a refurbished MacBook Pro is the better fit. Our which Mac is best guide runs through it in plain terms.
The Apple silicon models stay current for longer and run cooler and quieter in everyday use, so they are the ones we point most people towards. The older Intel models are the value pick and still handle browsing, writing and office work nicely if budget is the main thing.
You get the same light, portable laptop for a good deal less than new. Because each one is tested and graded before it is listed, a refurbished Air is a low risk way to buy, and it keeps a working machine out of landfill.
A+ Pristine looks close to new. A Excellent has only light signs of use. B Good carries a few more marks you might notice up close. C Average shows the most wear and is priced the lowest. All four are fully working and covered the same way.
For everyday use on a tighter budget an older model does the job. For something that stays current longer, look at the M1 range, or the M2 range if you want the newer of the two.
For most people, yes. The Air handles browsing, writing, study and general office work comfortably, which is exactly what it is built for. If you do a lot of heavier editing, the MacBook Pro is worth a look instead.
Battery health is part of our testing, so you are not buying blind. If a battery is not up to scratch the machine does not go out for sale.
Yes. They run macOS as normal and keep getting updates for as long as Apple supports the model, the same as a new one would.
